Description

Calm dead end street near the cozy Moorkensplein, with the stately district house of Borgerhout. Quiet and yet close to top cafes Mombasa, Mokkakapot, Bar Leon, Bar Bakeliet, Krugerplein, Zurenborg... Choosing is still difficult! On Friday to the market on Vinçotteplein, near Central Station and Rivierenhof.

This original house received a complete, tasteful renovation in 2007. By choosing a concept without interior doors, you get an extremely open and airy feeling everywhere. Daylight streams in through the windows.

On the ground floor you will find the spacious living room with reading corner, which connects to a patio with a real outdoor shower!

On the 1st floor: sunny dining room and kitchen. Eucalyptus floor and countertop are assorted, a smart choice that further enhances the sense of space. Many handy drawers with masses of storage space - no clutter in sight. The kitchen continues to the south-facing terrace, a wonderful place to lounge.

The 2nd floor houses a large bedroom with adjoining spacious bathroom with bath.

At the top you will find a nice mezzanine, now used as an attic with a guest bed, but you can also set up a desk there. Every corner has been thought about here – literally every spot has been ingeniously used. The entire building also has a basement: extra storage space.

Another facade renovation and interior freshening up, that's all you need to turn this nice place into your dream home.

Thanks to the light and openness here, it really feels like coming home every time.
The landlady,

owner speaks out

This is my dream place when I want to retreat from the busy everyday life. I always relax here. Thanks to the light and openness here, it really feels like coming home every time, in this cozy cocoon. I deliberately chose not to install doors in order to optimally enjoy light and air, and I am still very happy with that decision every day. No doors? No problem – on the contrary!
